The Big Game: Star Wars Battlefront

It may be a surprise to hear that there’s a new Star Wars film coming out next month. “We are as excited for the new film as everyone else,” the game’s design director at DICE Niklas Fegraeus tells MCV.

“We knew we wanted to give players at least something that ties into the Force Awakens, but since both the game and the film were being made at the same time, we didn’t really know what that could be.

“Fortunately, the guys at LucasFilm helped out and we managed to get some super-exclusive sneak peek access, allowing us to create a free additional experience that ties in with the film.”
